Jim D asked about merging monthly membership Excel files.

Excel is quite happy to let you copy and paste from one 
file to another.

Have your main file open, then open the first months file 
and highlight the range of members. 

If there are not many records highlight them by wiping 
across them with the mouse but if there are a lot of 
records the keyboard method is easier.

Move to top left of the records. Hold down the shift key 
and do an End Right cursor key, then an End down cursor 
key. That will select all your records PROVIDED you have 
not left any gaps. If there are gaps then just keep moving 
the cursor keys until all the records are highlighted. Once 
all the records are selected let go the Shift key.

Do a Ctrl C to copy the selection, a Ctrl F6 to swap back 
to the main file. Move to the appropriate place and do a 
Ctrl V to paste in the records from the first month. 

Save the main file, do a Ctrl F6 back to the the first 
months file, then close it down. Open the next months file 
and repeat.
